11/26/08







Hello everyone!! How's going?? This is Mariko and I'm gonna be a next leader of this club. Let's have some fun together from now on, too:):):)

So, did you remember what we did today? We were talking about some environment problems and the things what we do for them. For example, we gave grobal warming, upping of the sea level, air pollution, extraordinary weather, and so on as the problem. We found that there are a large number of the problems and the influences because of that. You know those problems sometimes make our lives inconvenient and also it is possible to risk our lives.
Then, what can we do for them?? We could save energy by turning off the lights as often as possible. Declining to get a plastic bad and using an eco bag is good, too. What else?? Let's think about the ways to solve environmental problems by your self♪♪ What can you do for the earth??
Oh, and I forgot that we learned 3 vocabularys from YUKA:D
1. the state of the art
2. featured entree
3. on behalf of
Did you get the meaning of these three? If you didn't, let's make sure them with other ESS members!! Of course you can come to me to ask them!!
Ok, time to say see you!!
Take care and stay warm, my friends:)

Meeting on November 19th

Hello, everyone! How are you?

My name is Yumiko.
I haven't posted for a long time... Forgive me!


By the way, we tried an activity
to improve our English speaking skill.
The activity was... "chatting."

At first, we made small groups.

And then...
(1) Each person chose one card (one topic)
to talk.
Keywords were...
* Your family
* Your favorite star
* Your pet
* Part-time job
* Your favorite country
* What do you want on Christmas Day?
* Winter holidays' plan
* How to spend in your free time
* What are you crazy about these days?
* Your favorite place at SUAC

(2) The next person to the speaker
asked one question about the topic.





I had a great time with members!
Besides, I realized that's so important to
try hard to think and express my own idea
in English.

See you next time!
xoxo

ESS in Shizuoka University♪

Hello!

On November 8th, Yukika, Eina and I went to the Shizuoka University's school festival.
We visited ESS of Shizuoka University.

They were selling "YAKISOBA".
We bought it. It was good^^

I met a reader of ESS.
He is really nice guy.

Meeting of November 5th!!

Hello^^^^

Today, we had a debate!!

The topic is " Adult should be from 18 years old or not."
In Japan, 20 yeays old is a age that is reccognized as adult.
However, many other country is recognized from 18 years old.


What do you think?


Was this topic a little bit difficult?^^
But every one did a good job!!

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!!
